Thank you all for the feedback.
Oliver. Felicity. The vigilante. The IT-girl. Oliver. Felicity.
I DO NOT OWN ARROW. :(
May I have this dance, miss?" He asked, his heart beating like crazy.
Felicity watched, as Oliver extended his hand to her. He looked her deep in the eyes, making her weak in the knees. He was 'just' playing his part, right? Yes, ofcourse! He was just acting, trying to get King's attention. Felicity was also supposed to act, but it wasn't easy with him looking at her like that. She smiled at him nervously and softly rested her hand in his. As his piercing blue eyes bored into her soul, he locked their fingers together, promising himself to never let her go.
"Come on, pretty lady in the green dress. Let's show these people how it's done." He said softly, sending shivers down her spine.
They walked to the dance floor, with their eyes locked on one another. They had to act like a real couple; a couple in love. So Felicity and Oliver had to make it look good. Very good.
The moment they hit the dance floor, Oliver smiled widely but Felicity looked so lost. Oliver saw that she felt really uncomfortable, so without saying a word he turned her around, her back against his chest. She was trembling like a leaf and wanted to run away, but she trusted him. Completely. So she let him lead her. Felicity began to breathe faster; he saw that and wanted to do something to calm her down.
So he brought his lips to her ear and whispered. "Do you trust me, Felicity?"
Those words and his hot breath on her neck, seem to make it so hard to think clearly. She was overwhelmed by his manly scent, making it so difficult to form a coherent sentence. So to prevent from embarrassing herself, Felicity did the only thing she could. She nodded with her eyes closed, as she inhaled his scent. His manly scent.
The moment he saw her nod, he grabbed her waist lightly and brought her body to his. He almost lost his control, feeling her soft body mold into his. 'Come on, Oliver. You're just playing along with the plan. You're just acting! He thought, mentally slapping himself. He tried to focus on the plan, but she smelled so good! The moment she felt his hard body pressed on hers, her breath hitched in her throat. She sighed deeply and almost wanted to whimper from the warmth of his body.
"Follow my lead, OK?" he whispered in her ears, turning her knees into jelly.
She nodded again and the next thing she felt was his callous hands on her hips and they began to easily dance to the music. To her, it was the hottest thing ever; his hands on her body, his warm breath on her neck and his warm, muscled body so close to hers. Felicity still had her eyes closed, enjoying all that was Oliver Queen.
"Good you two; you definitely look like a real couple. Aren't you guys over doing it though? You guys are most definitely over doing it. "Digg said.
Oliver reluctantly let Felicity go and twirled her around, so they were facing eachother again.
Felicity felt like time stood still, as Oliver and her were gazing at eachother. But in the back of her mind, she kept saying that he was only playing his part.
"OK, you guys. Terence King is dancing right next to you." Digg said.
At hearing that, Oliver purposely bumped into the man and let his drink drop to the floor.
"Hey, man. So sorry about that. Let me get you another drink." Oliver said.
King wasn't amused at all, but he nodded and stared at Felicity.
BINGO! Felicity had his attention. Oliver walked to the bar and was glad that the first step of their plan was working. King loved blondes and loved the colour green.
"Hello, sweetie. How are you? Wanna dance?" He asked, while grabbing her hand.
Felicity had the urge to yank her hand from his, but she stopped herself on time. That was the plan; she had to get his attention so he would invite her up. So she and Oliver could drug him and get the data from his computer.
"I am taken you know, I have a boyfriend. You just met him." She calmly said, even though she wanted to kick him with her heels.
He was so gross!
King laughed at her."Do you know who I am? I'm Terence King, host of this ball. And by the way, I love a challenge. I saw how in love you 2 looked. Give me a chance to have 30 minutes alone time with you and I promise that you won't remember his name afterwards."
Felicity wanted to scratch his eyes out, but held herself back.
"Don't do it." Digg said, as he heard her huff.
"Well, well. You are very cocky, mister. What makes you think that I wanna forget my boyfriend. Do you know who he is?" She said, while giving the man a fake smile.
"I don't care who he is, sweetie. Let me take you up; you do wanna have a good time right? I have some good stuff." He whispered.
"Go with him, Felicity. That is the plan, right? Don't worry, I'll be following the 2 of you. He won't get a chance to make a move on you." Oliver promised, his voice deeper than usual.
"Okay, if you insist. Mr. King, let's go up." Felicity said, her voice trembling from annoyance.

Felicity was upstairs with Terence King, while he was fixing her a drink.
"Why don't you relax, sweetie. I don't bite, you know." He said.
She smiled and accepted the drink. Felicity did as if she took a sip of her drink and watched King. All of a sudden he was all up in her face, grabbing her by her waist. Felicity was just about to scratch him, when she saw Oliver. He leaped at them and effortlessly injected King with a drug. He was out in seconds.
"Are you alright, Felicity?" He asked, with a worried tone in his voice.
He had both hands on her cheeks, making the skin that he touched tingle deliciously.
"I'm fine, though I really wanted to scratch his eyes out just now." She uttered.
He smiled and kind of regretted that he didn't give her the chance to hurt King. That would have been fun to see.
Oliver was still looking Felicity in the eyes and his hands were still on her face. It wasn't even weird that they both still had their mask on. On the contrary; she thought he looked ten times hotter with it over his eyes. At the moment Felicity's heart was beating so fast, it skipped 2 maybe 3 beats. Oliver knew that they were running out of time. He should let go of her, but he didn't have the strenght to do so. Her skin was so soft and so warm and she...
"Hey, you two! You don't have a lot of time! Get the data." They heard Digg say loudly.
He finally let her go, so Felicity hastily walked to the computer. She sat on the chair and grabbed her jump drive. As the data was being copied, Felicity nervously tapped on the desk. She was biting her lower lip, making Oliver swallow hard.
"You two are awfully quiet. What's wrong?" Digg asked.
"Nothing's wrong!" They both said in unison, while avoiding eachother's gaze.
After a few minutes they had all the data they needed."Yes!" Felicity said with her right fist up.
"Okay, let's get out of here." Oliver said and led her out the office.
They walked out carefully, cause Oliver took out 3 bodyguards but there were 2 still out there. Everything was going according to plan... that was until they turned the corner and saw the bodyguards. Oliver pulled Felicity back.
"What are we gonna do? If they see us, they're gonna ask questions that we can't answer."Felicity whispered.
"And fighting them isn't an option. If you do that, it will attract attention to you two. And we do not want that!" Digg said concerned.
Oliver had no clue what to do and they were running out of time. In a few seconds the men were going to see them.
"Kiss her, Oliver." Digg said.
"What?!" Oliver growled, while Felicity's eyes almost popped out at hearing Digg's words.
But there was no time and though Oliver thought that it was A BAD... A VERY BAD idea, he took Digg' s advice.
Oliver looked at Felicity questioningly, so she nodded though she was beyond terrified. He leaned in and cupped her face gently and looked her deep in her ocean blue eyes. As he brought his lips to hers, his heart rate increased. He softly kissed her red lips, her eyes falling shut at their own accord. The moment she felt his warm lips pressed onto hers, her heart fluttered like crazy! Felicity's hands roamed and ended up in his short hair. She moved her lips slowly; tasting, sampling.
One of Oliver's hands ended up at the back of her head, as they deepened the kiss. He kissed her with so much passion, it left them both aching for more. Their lips began to move faster, leaving them both breathless. At one point, Oliver heard Felicity make a sweet noise that came from the back of her throat. Was she deliberately trying to kill him with that sensual sound? She was making him loose his mind.
"Hey, you two! You can't be here! What are you doing here?" The guard said loudly.
Oliver pulled away first, making Felicity whimper softly at the loss of his warm lips on hers. They looked each other deep in the eyes; both looking dazed and confused. Especially Felicity, but she didn't get a chance to dwell on it.
"Uhum... sorry, but we were looking for the restroom. We couldn't find it, so we did 'something else' instead." Oliver explained, giving the 2 men a look as he referred to the kiss.
"Okay, we understand. I'd want to kiss her all day too, if I had a girlfriend who looked like her." The man said, referring to Felicity.
"We can go?" Oliver asked.
The man nodded, so Oliver and Felicity walked away, very relieved.

The arrow had given the jump drive to officer Lance. He was going to make sure King was going to prison for a long time.
When the 3 of them arrived at the foundry, Felicity took off her mask. Digg teased her, saying that she should wear it everyday. After a while Digg left; he was very tired and just needed some rest. So after Felicity was done with her search on a hitman, Oliver decided to bring her home. As they walked out the car, Oliver looked at Felicity.
"You look amazing in that dress, you know."
She smiled and said." Thank you. And thank you again for the dress... I can keep it, right? Or do you want it back?"
He laughed out loud." You can keep it. And the mask too." He replied, as he placed a hand on her cheek.
She looked up at him."Oliver, I don't understand... what's going on? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Oliver sighed deeply and shook his head." I don't know... I am just as confused as you. I..." He began, but was cut off by a voice.
"Your hands up, now! "
Oliver and Felicity immediately did as the man ordered. Oliver stayed calm, while Felicity began to shake from fear.
"What do you want. Here's my wallet and watch." Oliver said.
As Oliver talked to the man, he purposely stood in front of Felicity. Anything can go wrong during a robbery, so he used his body as a shield if things went wrong. He didn't care about himself; all that mattered to him was that Felicity was safe from harm. She had to be protected.
And as he thought of keeping her safe, suddenly the man aimed and began shooting, bullets flying in their direction. The last thing on Oliver's mind was her. Felicity. Felicity. Felicity...
